This is a much nicer picture than the photoshop.

Glad you like it, but it's not a good shot. To flat and to much distraction in the background (Grundig building, tower, lamp posts, various colored cars etc.). I have a clear philosophy when it comes to my pictures and that's "subject + location".  ;)

Wimmer, I love your photos and you have real talent behind a camera, but the Photoshop stuff is beginning to look fake.  Fake smoke, fake light, fake locations; it's like watching a movie filmed entirely against a green screen.  It doesn't feel real. 

No offense buddy, just trying to give some constructive criticism.

I always appreciate input. THANKS.  :cheers:

I'll rework those images.  :ohyeah:

I like the Volkswagen Scirocco. It's a hot little car, but in terms of design I FEEL the Peugeot RCZ has got it beat all the way.  ;)

Yeah maybe, but costing the same as the one with twice the power? No effing way!

Different strokes for different folks. Some people appreciate the design and find it more emotional than the Scirocco and for them it's worth the money.


Finished this shot of the front. Sharkface!




Improved this shot a bit...

The RCZ is just a strange looking car to me.  It looks awkward and out of proportion.

I think the Megane coupe is a better current French take on sporty small cars.

I think they look awesome in person. More imposing and more elegant than the Audi TT. They also look massive compared to the TT and they're not as small as people think they are. It would probably do well in the US if it were sold there.

I think Citroen and Peugeot would do well in the USA. They offer style and a premium look that the US is now open to.

What about Renault? Or would they conflict to much with Nissan?

Probably, although Clio looks way better than Versa. Megane and Laguna also look far better than their Nissan counterparts.

I think they'd fail, since people here are still anti-French.

Most people don't even know what make and model their cars are.


Many people were anti Korea until recently.

A lot of people have a thing about the French as a people, not necessarily about their cars.  Personally, I don't get it.

I agree about Nissan.  I really hope they don't fuck up the next G37.

If it's a French girl neighbor, I'd be all about it.

You need to attend more soccer games when the French play.  :ohyeah:
